A teenager has been left battling with four-hour long seizures and debilitating uncontrollable outbursts of tears and laughter -- caused by a sore throat.

Lee Wilson, 15, was fit and healthy before he got a throat infection in June - but within weeks he was having fits and making involuntary movements and sounds.

It was so out of character, mum Lisa Bullen, 36, even made her son promise he wasn't taking drugs, and doctors tried to have him admitted to a psychiatric unit.

But after two months of countless hospital visits over body twitching and random outbursts he was eventually diagnosed with an unusual condition called PANDAS.
